  1. Well sure – you can’t create sweet soundbytes with some punk asking for substance. It’s like you’re saying that Desantis is a real professional and can just speak from an honest position on the fly. Great real!

  3. It’s a great sign when your leaders are terrified of children.

  4. Obviously they achieved exactly what they wanted, what with all these headlines about the student and their questions.

    DeSantis can’t even fascist properly.

  6. Floridian corruption at its finest: the police doing the bidding of a politician instead of defending the young man’s first amendment rights. DeSantis, like most of today’s Republicans, is truly disgusting.

  11. Every one knows Desantis is no match for a 15 year old, a two year old maybe.

  14. If you’re scared to answer questions from a 15 year old kid then maybe you’re just not ready for the world stage.

  15. Public servants need to remember they are public servants.

  16. The first sign of authoritarianism. Use the police to silence legitimate questions from citizens.

  18. GOP can’t handle questions from a 15 yr old. Need the police to intervene.

    Alpha males everybody 🤪

  19. I know we’re all rightfully dunking on DeSantis for being afraid of a high schooler, but that kid is extraordinarily well-spoken and confident. I hope he keeps pursuing his journalism dreams, because he’s got more of a willingness to be confrontational than most of his seniors.

  20. Republicans LOVE getting on camera for an interview with absolutely any anchor at absolutely any major mainstream news station, yet they are pants-pissingly terrified of a 15 year old and the questions he asks.

    That’s pretty impressive for the 15 year old, but it’s mostly just embarrassing for the “legitimate” news. They’re so addicted to access that they’ll let any candidate tell any outrageous lie with virtually no pushback for fear of losing access, which turns every interview into a glorified campaign ad.

    This kid and that one Australian reporter who blew Trump’s mind when he asked him actual followup questions need to host some sort of Remedial Journalism class for every major news network and retrain these muppets on how to do their jobs.

  21. So the police are only working to protect the rich and we get what ?

  22. Imagine grown ass men and women who are supposed politicians being afraid of teenagers’ questions…

  23. this true citizen young person is what we need more of…attack the lies-of the right..you know …JOURNALISM!!!

  24. So many tough no nonsense alpha male conservatives using cops to protect them from big bad questions.

  25. This kids got more street cred now than 98% of legit journos.

  26. Politicians should be forced to answer to the public

  28. For the party of supposed “alpha male”, they sure are a bunch of fucking pussies.

  29. Again? Damn. He’s basically solidifying this young man’s opposition to all things Republican.

  31. That kid owns Ron, he had to have one of his handlers take him out when they were walking and talking. Ron fears this kid and that is hilarious.

  32. Governor Meatball is afraid of a 15 year old. I cannot imagine Meatball meeting Putin.

  33. Desantis really a lawyer?the kid deserves a scholarship Similar to Iron Eagle movie but to young
